Water levels at San Leon

There's a NOAA weather and tide station less than a miles from my house. They say it's at Eagle Point, but it's really on the eastern coast of San Leon Peninsula halfway between Eagle point and April Fool Point.

I'm going to post images as the storm approaches to get an idea of if and when the house goes under. So far, nothing too spectacular. The tide's a little high but nothing abnormal for this time of year. The winds are out of the north which I suppose must be due to the ridge of high pressure to the northeast that is rubbing against the hurricane and will be one of the main drivers in where Rita goes.
